Story
Meet Big Daddy Mo, the hunky, smooshy, wiggle-butt who’s stealing hearts left and right at FDHS! This big guy has an aloof charm and likes to take his time getting to know new people. But don’t worry—winning him over is easy with a good walk, a cheeseburger, and a steady stream of compliments (he knows he’s handsome, but he loves to hear it).Mo is a big softie at heart and lived with other dogs in his previous home, so he may enjoy a canine companion with the right introduction. We’re not sure how he feels about cats, and he’ll need slow, steady introductions to anyone new in his life—he likes to take his friendships seriously.If you’re looking for a loyal, laid-back buddy with a goofy side, Mo is your man. Apply for Big Daddy Mo today—he’s ready to be your one and only wiggle-butt!**Neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention. Weighs about 60 lbs**

Story
Hello, friends. My name’s Bodhi, and I’m a wise old soul in search of a soft place to call my own. I recently found myself here at FDHS after my family couldn’t keep me, and I’m hoping to find my way to a warm, loving home soon. I’m a gentle and sweet senior boy who just wants to be close to my people—I get anxious when I’m left alone too long, so I’d be happiest in a home where someone can keep me company.The staff here is still getting to know all my little quirks and charms, but they can already tell I have a lot of love to give. The kennel environment is a bit tough for a guy like me, so I’m really hoping to find a foster or foster-to-adopt home right away. If you’re looking for a calm and loyal friend to share quiet days with, I’d love to meet you. Let’s make this my new beginning!**Neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention. Weighs 55 lbs**

Abel

American Staffordshire Terrier

Male, 3 yrs 9 mos
Osseo, MI
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Abel—a sweet, gentle soul who has been a beloved long-term resident at our shelter. He’s a staff and volunteer favorite, and we’re heartbroken to see him returned, especially around the holidays. Abel is ready to find his forever home, and we’re hoping that someone special will give him the love and stability he truly deserves. Abel is a house hippo at heart, loving nothing more than lounging inside where it’s warm and cozy. He absolutely hates the cold, so a comfy spot indoors is his idea of paradise. He’s also a huge fan of treats—any kind of snack will do! Abel enjoys car rides and is a fantastic co-pilot, doing great in the car and loving the opportunity to go on adventures (even if it’s just to the store or for a short drive). On walks, Abel can be a bit of a puller, but he’s got a lot of love to give, and once you’re home, he’s all about cuddles and comfort. Abel would thrive best in a single-pet home without small children. He prefers to be the center of attention, and a calm, predictable environment will help him feel most at ease. Abel takes an inexpensive medication called Fluoxetine, which helps with his anxiety. It works wonders for him, and he’ll need to stay on it for the rest of his life. We are only looking for adopters who are comfortable continuing this medication routine to ensure he stays happy and healthy. If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal companion who just needs a little extra support to be his best self, Abel could be your perfect match. He’s ready to shower you with love and make your home his safe, cozy haven. Able is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and heartworm negative.
